Quitting is an extremely difficult challenge for millions of smokers, often leading to severe health consequences. Instead of imposing bans and reinforcing misconceptions, the Trump administration has an opportunity to support innovation and a common-sense approach to reducing smoking-related harm.

Both are known for challenging rigid healthcare orthodoxy and have the potential to play a transformative role in shaping the future of public health in the U.S.
